    The diagonals of a cube with side length 1. AC' (shown in blue) is a space diagonal with length , while AC (shown in red) is a face diagonal and has length .. In geometry, a diagonal is a line segment joining two vertices of a polygon or polyhedron, when those vertices are not on the same edge.

    Mathematical and theoretical biology, or biomathematics, is a branch of biology which employs theoretical analysis, mathematical models and abstractions of living organisms to investigate the principles that govern the structure, development and behavior of the systems, as opposed to experimental biology which deals with the conduction of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_letters_used_in...

    Greek letters are used in mathematics, science, engineering, and other areas where mathematical notation is used as symbols for constants, special functions, and also conventionally for variables representing certain quantities. In these contexts, the capital letters and the small letters represent distinct and unrelated entities.

  6. Space diagonal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_diagonal

    A magic square is an arrangement of numbers in a square grid so that the sum of the numbers along every row, column, and diagonal is the same. Similarly, one may define a magic cube to be an arrangement of numbers in a cubical grid so that the sum of the numbers on the four space diagonals must be the same as the sum of the numbers in each row, each column, and each pillar.

  7. Diagonal matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diagonal_matrix

    The term diagonal matrix may sometimes refer to a rectangular diagonal matrix, which is an m-by-n matrix with all the entries not of the form d i,i being zero. For example: [ 1 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 − 3 0 0 0 ] or [ 1 0 0 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 0 − 3 0 0 ] {\displaystyle {\begin{bmatrix}1&0&0\\0&4&0\\0&0&-3\\0&0&0\\\end{bmatrix}}\quad {\text{or}}\quad ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Definitions_of_mathematics

    The preceding kinds of definitions, which had prevailed since Aristotle's time, [4] were abandoned in the 19th century as new branches of mathematics were developed, which bore no obvious relation to measurement or the physical world, such as group theory, projective geometry, [3] and non-Euclidean geometry.

  9. Diagonally dominant matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diagonally_dominant_matrix

    The definition in the first paragraph sums entries across each row. It is therefore sometimes called row diagonal dominance. If one changes the definition to sum down each column, this is called column diagonal dominance. Any strictly diagonally dominant matrix is trivially a weakly chained diagonally dominant matrix.
